How can i run an exe from c# code

[Guest]

I have a scenario is i want to print a sale bill. The printer I am using, has
an exe file A6Print.exe for printing. When i run this exe file from my code
then it will print txt file which i have saved, like that
When user click on print button
i will call routine which make a text file named prnfile.txt
then call A6Print.exe prnfile.txt
this will result in printout of bill
i have created text file but unable to call an exe file
is there some way to call an exe file from code

Hi,

Get OpenNETCF Smart Device Framework from www.opennetcf.org
And all you need is to impot OpenNETCF.Diagnostics
and use Process.Start

Check this for reference.

Hope this helps,
Cheers,

You need to either P/Invoke CreateProcess or ShellExecuteEx API methods (see
the source here for an example
http://www.opennetcf.org/sourcebrow...wroot/Source/OpenNETCF/Diagnostics/Process.cs),
or use the OpenNETCF.Diagnostics.Process class for a managed wrapper which
behaves like the full .NET framework - www.opennetcf.org/sdf/ .

Did you finish your application? How do you print a specific file from command line arguments?

I'm trying to write a print method from my program to print a receipt to this printer using their A6Print.exe program.
